Chapter 632 Gunpowder(2/2)

"This Ministry of Revenue is also the Ministry of Commerce!" Liu Mang looked at the civil and military officials below, "Where is Mi Zhu!"

"I'm here!" Mi Zhu stood up and clasped his fists at Liu Mang. When Liu Mang said about the Ministry of Revenue, Mi Zhu knew he wanted to point himself.

"Zifang, my Ministry of Commerce will teach you! You are my Yangzhou wallet! If you don't have enough money, I'll ask you!"

"Lord, don't worry, as long as Mi Zhu is in power for one day, I will definitely make my Yangzhou rich!"

"Haha, I want my Yangzhou to become the richest state in the world!" Liu Mang still saw Mi Zhu's ability to make money.

Mi Zhu was so happy that he was named by Liu Mang. He now had a title. He used to be a separate director of the Ministry of Commerce, but everyone didn't understand what kind of official position Mi Zhu was. Now, it has finally been decided. The Ministry of Revenue is the Ministry of Commerce, one of the six civil officials.

How could Mi Zhu be unhappy? Now Mi Zhu remembered that he wished he could meet Liu Mang as soon as possible. If he had met Liu Mang one day earlier, how could he be like this? He would not have been deceived so badly by Liu Bei. People used to say that Mi Zhu relied on his sister's beauty, but no one said that now, because the lord Liu Mang and his sister had nothing to do with him.

"By the way, Zifang, your sister is okay!" Liu Mang suddenly mentioned Mrs. Mi Zhu, which made Mi Zhu stunned for a moment, but then he was overjoyed. Did the lord fall in love with his sister? Mi Zhu wanted to send his sister to Liu Mang's bed so that their Mi family could be more stable. However, there was no chance because Liu Mang was not in Yangzhou. Another reason was that his sister was no longer a perfect body. Mi Zhu gave up. However, suddenly being mentioned by Liu Mang, Mi Zhu was immediately overjoyed. Could it be that the lord still likes his sister? What's wrong with not a perfect body, but he can serve others.

"Last time I parted, my sister has been thinking about her lord!" Mi Zhu winked at Liu Mang.

Liu Mang looked at Mi Zhu and knew that Mi Zhu was a misunderstanding. Mi Zhu thought he was interested in Mrs. Mi.

That white jade beauty is indeed very beautiful, and Liu Mang likes it very much, but Liu Mang doesn’t have enough energy. Those in the family will turn him into humans, so how dare you provoke him?

"Zifang. If Ling Mei hasn't married yet, then I, the lord, will have to ask you to kiss Zifang!"

"Proposal of marriage?" Mi Zhu listened to Liu Mang's words. Liu Mang did not want to marry his sister, but proposed marriage.

"I dare to ask the lord who proposed marriage!" Mi Zhu asked carefully.

"You know this man Zifang, too, that is my sworn brother, and that is my general Zhao Yun and Zhao Zilong!" Liu Mang said to Mi Zhu.

"Zilong?" Mi Zhu didn't expect that Liu Mang would propose marriage to Zhao Yun. Mi Zhu also knew Zhao Yun. At that time, Zhao Yun was working under Gongsun Zan. Mi Zhu worked for Liu Bei, and he also recruited Zhao Yun for Liu Bei. So the two knew each other.

"Yes, it's Zilong! I want to say kissing to my younger brother like you Zifang!" Zhao Yun had long seen that he liked Mrs. Mi, because after Liu Mang took down Mrs. Mi, Zhao Yun asked someone to deliver food many times, and also asked a lot of people indirectly about Liu Mang, for fear that Mrs. Mi would be killed by Liu Mang.

Zhao Yun thought he was doing something hidden, but who had thought that there were many talented people around Liu Mang? One of them was Jia Xu, Jia Wen and this old fox. After seeing Zhao Yun twice, he told Liu Mang that Zhao Yun liked Mrs. Mi.

"This minister is going back to ask the sister!" Although Mi Zhu was very disappointed that Liu Mang didn't like his sister. But it would be nice to think about Zhao Yun, a confidant beloved general next to Liu Mang.

"Ask as soon as possible, ask as soon as possible. My brother is also very old and always keeps a few more babies for the Zhao family." Liu Mang knew that Zhao Yun was in love. He used to like Mrs. Mi, but he might not dare to say anything about Liu Bei, but now in Liu Bei's claim, Mrs. Mi is dead, so it naturally doesn't matter.

"Okay, let's get back to the point! The Ministry of Revenue is the Ministry of Justice, which is in charge of the world's punishment. The specific duties of the Ministry of Justice are: to review various laws, review the criminal cases sent to the Ministry of Justice, and work with local governments to hear the death penalty of "supervising the prison". The Legislative Department, the Judicial Department, and the Punishment Department. This Minister of Justice, Kong Ming will teach you!" Liu Mang said to Zhuge Liang next to him.

"Secretary of the Ministry of Justice?" Zhuge Liang couldn't help but take a look. The Ministry of Justice naturally wanted to legislate. This is the view of the Legalists. How did this Shu King know that he was a member of the Legalists?

That's right, although Zhuge Liang studied Confucianism by Sima Shuijing, he himself was a representative of the Legalists.

If he couldn't stand, Zhuge Liang cried and executed Ma Su, because of the Legalist concept, he would stick to it. No matter who he was, even Liu Chan was afraid that Zhuge Liang would come because Zhuge Liang followed the law, and Liu Chan was also unlucky to make a mistake.

"Liang received the order!" Zhuge Liang became more and more curious about Liu Mang. He had never told anyone that he was a member of the Legal family, and Zhuge Liang had never been in power. He was in the army as soon as he became an official. How did His Highness the King of Shu know that he was good at punishing? Could it be that he was really Bole? He could also know about Li Yan that he had already surprised Zhuge Liang, but now he still knows himself.

Liu Mang really knew Zhuge Liang. The only two largest representatives of the Three Kingdoms were Zhuge Liang and Cao Cao.

Lao Cao was a representative of the Legalists, and he could tell from his original five-color stick. No matter whether you are a nobleman of heaven or a commoner, you will be punished if you break the law.

If Kuai Liang was in Yangzhou, Liu Mang would also want to give him the Ministry of Justice, but now it seems that Zhuge Liang can only work harder.

As for Li Yan's armed police department, he is next to the Ministry of Justice. He only has the right to arrest people, and interrogation is the matter of the Ministry of Justice.

"The Ministry of Rites is in charge of ceremonial affairs and schools, the affairs of the imperial examinations. It tests the use of the five rituals of auspicious, Jia, military, guest, and bad rituals; it manages the affairs of Yangzhou school affairs and the imperial examinations and the exchanges between vassals and princes. The Ministry of Rites has four departments, namely: the Qing official department, which is in charge of Jia rituals, military rituals and management of academic affairs, and the affairs of the imperial examinations; the temple and sacrifice to the Qing official department, which is in charge of auspicious rituals and bad rituals; the host and guest rituals are in charge of guest rituals and reception of foreign guests; the Qing official department is in charge of banquets and food and food affairs." Liu Mang merged the recruitment hall and the diplomatic affairs of the college into the Ministry of Rites.

"The candidate for the Minister of Rites is Brother Shanmin!" Liu Mang said to the civil and military officials below.

"Brother Shanming?" Yangzhou Wenwu didn't know who this brother Shanmin was, until a honest young scholar from the outermost position behind them clasped his fists to Liu Mang above and said, "Pang Shanmin greets the lord, thank you for your kindness!"

This person is Pang Shanmin. Liu Mang and others were able to come out of Wuxi and then return to Yangzhou from Jingzhou. The Pang family put a lot of effort into it.

The Ministry of Rites manages what! He is in charge of education, diplomacy and talent recruitment hall. In this position, he should be a great scholar. In this way, he can teach as a great scholar and preside over the interests as a great scholar. Because of the great scholar's livelihood, he can naturally recruit talents all over the world. In addition to Liu Mang's desire to return Pang Shanmin's father Pang Degong's favor, there is another reason that should not underestimate Pang Shanmin. He is still very important in the minds of scholars. Although his understanding of Confucianism is not as low as his father Pang Degong, this person is still a gentleman. The most important thing is that with the Pang family's son here, many students from Lumen College will come. Liu Mang is naturally happy to be successful.

"This last part is the Ministry of War in charge of the military guards in all provinces, the selection and appointment of military officers, and the concise government orders. It is responsible for the assignment of military officers at home and abroad, the rules of sealing, the system of postal communication, verification, concise rules, scholarships, and actual numbers of military officers. The Ministry of War has four departments: the Military Selection Qing Official Office, which assesses the rank and selection of military officers, promotion, inheritance, and titles, and manages chieftains; the Vehicles Qing Official Office, which is responsible for the national horse government and postal communication; the Office of Qing Official Office, which is responsible for the remarks of military officers, verification, pension, brief review, inspection, patrol and other matters of military officers, and also manages the customs and maritime bans; the Armament Qing Official Office, which is responsible for the military officers' military officers' registration, military weapons and military examinations. In addition, the Qing Official Office has established a salary department to inspect military officers; the Association Hall. It manages the affairs of the postal affairs of the capital; the Good News Office, which is responsible for the delivery of documents."

"Let's teach this Minister of War to Wenhe!" Liu Mang still thought about Jia Xu's position as Minister of War, and left him the position of Minister of War.

"There is a cabinet above the six ministries!" Liu Mang said to everyone below.

"There are eleven people in the cabinet, and all the six ministers can enter. The remaining five people can enter the army. Or the marshals in the army can enter, or be a bachelor in the cabinet, and they can discuss matters. This king is one of them!" Liu Mang was the master of Yangzhou, so he naturally needed to enter.

"Xu Shu is the Prime Minister of the Cabinet and supports all the affairs in the Cabinet! If I am not in command of the entire Yangzhou army!" Liu Mang said to his subordinates, Xu Shu is the boss of the six ministries. When will the six ministries discuss with Xu Shu first? If there are many people agreeing, then pass it. If there are few people agreeing, then re-discuss or give up. Only when both sides agree with the five people, find Liu Mang, the master, to decide whether to proceed. Of course, Liu Mang also has the right to reject or agree with one word.

In addition to the six ministers of the cabinet, the remaining personnel were Xu Shu, Chen Gong in Lujiang, and Liu Mang's cheap father-in-law Lu Bu Lu Fengxian."

Liu Mang's layers of orders were sent to the entire Yangzhou, and all the officials in Yangzhou were mobilized. Which department belongs to? Should they retire or advance? Liu Mang doesn't have to worry about these, so naturally there is Xu Shu, the inner minister.

The reason why Liu Mang did not directly call the cabinet prime minister was because he was just a royal title, and the Emperor of Han was not qualified to be prime minister, but the operation of this small court in Yangzhou was enough.

After the six parts, Yangzhou's government orders were released smoothly, and everyone performed their duties, unlike when you were in the past, I could also manage them, and finally shirked the responsibility of each other.

"The sixth tribe of the lord, let me change my Yangzhou!" Xu Shu said to Liu Mang in admiration.

Liu Mang could only smile. These six divisions were not thought of by him, but by those talented and powerful people later, just like the Nine-rank Zhongzheng system and the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers.

The affairs of the six ministries are just a clearer division of labor.

Liu Mang didn't have the energy to explain to Xu Shu. He was so tired. Last night, he had fought for hundreds of rounds. There were four generals on the enemy, all of whom were generals. Even if Liu Mang was a powerful general, he couldn't stand it. In the past few days, Liu Mang almost hid when he saw the four ladies, but he couldn't hide. These four people would always get around at night. After finally Liu Mang took a break, and that was one of them had a period of menstruation, but he still had to fight three people that night.

This battle is played, there is a beauty like Zou in the mansion, who can bear the charming eyes of Liu Mang every day?

"Then Gongsun Du's war horses are sent!" Gongsun Du's envoy selected a hundred war horses from the Bingzhou wolf cavalry, both male and female, and brought them back. No matter how many of them, he could not afford it. An Arab war horse would have to be exchanged for fifty ordinary horses, who could bear it?

"Send it back! This time, in addition to the five thousand war horses, there were also five thousand war horses bought by my army, totaling 10,000. More than 300 died on the way, and now only 9,700 are left!" Xu Shuhui reported.

"Okay, allocate all those war horses to the army, let the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and the Xiliang Iron Cavalry take the lead. Let them achieve one person and two horses as soon as possible!" Liu Mang said to Xu Shu next to him.

"Don't you use these war horses to expand your army?" Xu Shu asked in confusion to Liu Mang. The Western Liang Iron Cavalry and the Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry both have war horses. In the past, there were no war horses that could not expand the cavalry troops, but now there are so many war horses that are not enough to expand the army.

"Expanding the army?" Liu Mang shook his head and said, "It's not easy to talk about it." The cavalry troops are not infantry combat. If they have enough footwear, they just need to wear armor and have a sword. The cavalry troops need to train cavalry.

"Don't we have stirrups and saddles!" With stirrups and saddles, it can be said that training is much easier.

"Forget it, these war horses are not the Arab war horses I brought back. They are not as powerful as their endurance or explosive power!" Liu Mang said to Xu Shu. If the army was expanded, they could form a new heavy armored cavalry, but Liu Mang didn't want to be so powerful. Which of the armor and weapons used by soldiers should not be used for money? Besides, elites are the most important. Letting Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry and Xiliang Iron Cavalry improve their combat effectiveness by improving their combat effectiveness. Usually, riding those war horses bought from Liaodong, and changing horses immediately when they are about to charge in a war can maintain their horsepower and maximize their combat effectiveness.

"By the way, I'll allocate five hundred from it! No! One thousand war horses are allocated to Pang Shanmin!" Liu Mang said to Xu Shu.

"To the Secretary of Pang?"

"yes!"

"He doesn't use so many horses there. If he transports things and sends a pack horse, it's fine!"

"No! These war horses were sent to the academy." Liu Mang said to Xu Shu, "The Six Arts of Gentleman, Yuan Zhi. How many of them do you know!"

"Rite, music, archery, monarch, books, numbers. Lord, are you testing me!"

"You can only learn rituals, music, and books in the academy! You can't learn riding and shooting."

"Master, do you mean?"

"What's the use of a group of scholars who only know how to learn how to do it? I want them to learn how to ride and shoot." Liu Mang said to Xu Shu next to him. "Yangzhou College is about to be established. Everyone who comes out of the academy must learn how to ride and shoot. Unless he is physically disabled, he will not want to graduate." Liu Mang wanted to make the literati strong, and don't just study and study without the power of a chicken. Before the Wei and Jin Dynasties, scholars could ride and shoot, but after the Wei and Jin Dynasties! Scholars could only use one mouth, which was why scholars met soldiers.

Practicing riding and shooting can not only strengthen the body, but also maintain a vitality and wildness.

"Boom!" Just as Liu Mang and Xu Shu were still in negotiations, a loud noise sounded outside Shouchun City. The sound could be heard within dozens of miles.

"What's going on? Is it thunder?" Xu Shu asked in confusion. He looked at the weather, and it was not gloomy. Without clouds, there would be no rain. Why did thunder suddenly sound?

"It's not a thunder!" Liu Mang shook his head, and he looked at the direction of the explosion, south of Shouchun City.

Liu Mang's eyes lit up, "Pig Industrial Zone?" Liu Mang then remembered that his Yangzhou Industrial Park was in the south of Shouchun City, and he was a little familiar with the sound of the explosion.

"Hurry, send someone to Shouchun Industrial Zone to see what's going on!" Liu Mang said to the people under his command.

"Yes!" Several personal guards nodded quickly and were about to leave.

"Forget it!" Liu Mang stopped them. "Come on horses for me, I'll go to Shouchun Ministry of Works in person!" The current industrial park and Liu Mang, who belongs to the Ministry of Works, then called the Ministry of Works.

Soon, Liu Mang's war horse was ready. He was going to prepare a carriage for Liu Mang, but Liu Mang despised that the carriage might waste time, so he asked for two batches of war horses. He asked for two war horses because there was another Xu Shu.

Each person and one horse, Xu Shu quickly climbed onto the war horse, and the two followed their personal guards and went straight towards the Shouchun Industrial Park.

"What's going on? What's going on!" When Liu Mang arrived there, the industrial park was broken, and many places were still burning flames. Many people were extinguishing it. The scene was full of ruins. A corpse was placed aside.

"This, this, is this thunder set in the sun?" Xu Shu stared at everything in front of him with wide eyes. He could not imagine what would cause the current scene, and only divine power or thunder set.

"It's not a thunderfall!" Liu Mang sniffed his nose and emitted a very familiar smell from the air. "The smell of gunpowder?" Liu Mang's eyes glowed.

"The smell of gunpowder?" Xu Shu didn't know what gunpowder was talking about.

"Where is Ziyang!" Liu Mang suddenly shouted. This is the industrial park where his Ministry of Works. Logically, Liu Mang arrived and Liu Ye should come to greet him.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Liu Mang was a little panicked. This Liu Ye and Liu Ziyang would not kill him by using gunpowder.
